Chair Sets to Crochet, Book No. 143, circa 1940
Chair Sets to Crochet, Book No. 143 (circa 1940) is a charming early-1940s collection from The Spool Cotton Company devoted to crocheted chair sets — the classic antimacassars that protected and decorated upholstered furniture.
The cover features the pretty Wheel-of-Fortune No. 7251, a circular motif design shown on a wingback chair with matching arm covers. Inside you’ll find additional chair set patterns typical of the period, worked in fine crochet cotton with steel hooks.
These practical yet decorative pieces were a staple of mid-century American homes and remain popular with collectors and vintage décor enthusiasts today. A lovely example of everyday elegance from the Spool Cotton Company.
